"Whcu Brooks formed the resolution to attack Sumner, he, Keitt, and Edmundson proceeded to drink hard; and, for the rest of his life, Brooks w&' under the influence of liquor nearly ell the time. He bought a gutu percha cane, hollow and It derived strength from its hollow form, and the weight of the material made it formidable. With this cane be and his party lay waiting around the Senate chamber until the adjournment, when Mr. Sumner sat at his desk, closely wedged between his chair and the desk legs the size of the old chamber giving very contracted quarters to such Targe mea. Brooks walked directly up to tha front of the desk, and, with an instant's remark to the effect that Mr. Sumner had outraged his connection, Brooks struck him behind the crown, at that part of the back of the head which is less defended by the skull. He struck with great force, and repeated the blows rapidly, until Mr. Sumner, seeking to arise, burst the desk from the tloor to which it was screwed, and by this time Brooks had taken Lira by the hair of the head, so that, all bloody and insensible, he fell forward like a dead man, una the cane was shivered to pieces. A Senate page officiously asked Brooks if he wanted the pieces; but that assailant said that he required ouly the gold head, which be put m his pocket. Keitt called out from the door, ia a brutal way : "Brooks, next time kill him!" and added an oath to the suggestion, He then exclaimed : "Let's go and get a driuk." Bright, Douglas, Keitt, Edmund-son- , and one or two others, strode off to a saloon within the Capitol, called the and drank. It l, scarcely seems probable that Douglas could have joined such a party. But few persons wore aware of Mr. Sumner's injuries, or the importance of tho event iu history, aud it was ju4 that time of the day when couviviul , Senators took their liquor, Mr. Sumner, after a time, was taken up from the sofa where he had been laid, very palo and bewildered, and put into a carnage, which took him to his chambers in tho resident portion of the city. That night he was visited by few persona, and could scarcely converse: ana it is not be T AT THE Ogden Junction Office PWO'C" 6!
